FAQ's:
1. What clay are you using?
I'm using Monster Clay medium and hard grade.
It is an oil based clay that changes its consistency with temperature. It becomes soft when heated and hard when cold. It's doesn't harden over time, it will keep the same consistency overall so you can either stock it on a shelf or reuse the clay.
You can find Monster Clay at www.monstermakers.com/monster-clay , on Amazon or at your local art stores.
2. Can I buy this sculpture?
Unfortunately not, it's not for sale.
3. Will you paint it?
I'm not going to paint it. In order to do that it would have to be cast in a more durable material. Honestly I don't have the experience to mold a sculpture like this. It would take a professional mold maker to do it and there's no one like that in my area. This was just intended to be a one off and it will be kept in clay form. It would be possible to paint over the clay but it would be difficult to get in some areas and it's very likely to damage the sculpture in the process especially when it comes to smaller details, so it will remain like this.
4. What is the liquid you're applying and what is it for?
The liquid is Zippo lighter fluid, you can see the container throughout the video. Its purpose is to soften the surface of the clay, make it uniform and remove tool marks.
5. How long did this take you to make?
It took me about a month to finish the sculpture and probably another month to go through all the process videos and edit the final video.
If anyone is interested in seeing the whole process there are 20 videos available on my Patreon with every step in the creation of this sculpture. You can access all of them for $5 if you go to / craftyart
6. Do you take commissions?
I'm not taking commissions at the moment.

I saw this video a while back on another site and I must say the detail you put into your work is amazing! Holy cow! Edit: that was basically only a fraction of this upload...
Thank you very much Barbara!
@@CraftyArt hey! Thank you for the heart! I mean it, too...the details are just incredible...the bullets in the belt, the buttons on his suspenders AND his shirt, the holes for the bridle and the hook for hooking it, the saddle, etc. It’s just so amazing! Thank you for sharing your amazing talent on here. I hope you go incredibly far with it!
@@battlebear437 ok
What, no scabbard for his rifle? ;-)
i just realized he’s not just putting on random blobs, but every single muscle for the human and horse. amazing attention to detail
Yes very detailed.
BlackMamba Production o yea.
Yeah, reminds me of Frank Miller. He, became a better artist, by studying human anatomy.
Omg Yes
That's really good it looks like of my horses
I can't even imagine the time it must have taken to make this, it came out beautifully. Be proud of what you do
Took about 20 minutes
More do the horse was difficult we have a timelapse us and do arthur is difficult too because you have to do the détails
@@mra8162 🤡🤡
Cheese Toastie lmao
I tried to sculpt a keychain. Took me 3+ hours to make it. I can't imagine how long this took. I suck lol
bruh, speaking as an illustrator, to draw something on paper and make it look like someone is already hard, but to sculpt someone with this level of detail and precision is 10x harder. This work deserves all recognition it can have
Atleast one thing you have with clay I would think would be depth, as you can stack clay to raise or lower areas or to create shadows, whereas with drawing it's often difficult to correctly shade to show something thats meant to have depth.
@@deputydang8291 and does that make claywork any less easier?😂
@@lgamingnp3612 I didn't say that, I said it's easier to convey depth.
Its wild how often you think a part is finished then he starts hacking away at it again. Incredible.

@Jon Valler That's quite schewpid, innit?
People don't realise the INSANE amount of anatomy knowledge you need to sculpt these. Both the horse and Arthur. Fantastic work, my guy!
The individual muscles on the horse's face blow my mind
You do realize they could look up an image or play the game at anytime lol
@@firstnamelastname6672 if it was that easy then everyone could do it
@@prandle967 no lol
"my guy" lmao🤦🏻♂
Masterpiece, the sculptor managed to carry out every single feature to us. Absolutely fascinating...a piece of clay becomes alive and conveyed us the mood and the history...thank you so much I have been watching this twice following each movement of the sculptor...
This shii is AMAZING..From the way he kinda forms the skeletal then muscle anatomy,down to the tiniest of details is unreal..This is truly a blessing to be able to create something on this level of preciseness.💯
When he said “you’re a good boah” I teared up. Then he said “OUTA THE DAMN WAY” and I lost my shit. Great work 10/10
“You move too much”, my favorite line
I wanted to skip to the end result so badly, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't take my eyes off of the progress... I was absolutely mesmerized!
So true!
Same dude
The Art & the Artist..... A combination that turned a clay to reality.....
I think I finished with 100% honor for Arthur... man that ending broke me... he deserved so much better... love the sculpture it looks great
you should cast this and sell models. shit I'd buy one
Me too tbh
Yep
Count me in.
These are some good boahs raght hiere
it isn't for selling?
The memories man the memories with him was better than most of any other video game stories I’ve played.
That's because he's the best protagonist ever created in media. Arthur Morgan is hands down the best.
Yes the memories is all we have cause god forbid playing it again. WE SHALL ALL BE RANCHERS FOR LIFE. (Yeah arthur is the best charecter ever made in a video game even the video game is the best made in my opineon)
Nubby my brother has played it 3.5 times and my cousin has played it 5.
@@paceritz7943 it was a joke lol i played it twice on my third game now i am literally playing it now
Pace Ritz ive completed story 8 times
The attention to every detail is just so amazing. Thank you for sharing your gift.
Thank you very much for supporting us and introducing the channel to your friends
The amount of detail, some toy companies can’t even give all this detail
thats because they do mass production.
J P theyre still able to do this level of detail, but they choose not to as it would take more workers (which means more pay) more time (they want their product out asap) and no matter the detail, toy companies target children and they wouldnt know the difference anyways. with the amount of extra work that would be put in they would have to at least double the price to keep their profit margin. so they can, but they dont. and its better imo that they dont. companies that work specifically on figurines though... they could take some notes. the target isnt kids and the consumers would know the difference.
Toshinouu I remember as a kid the gi jo figurines used to be pretty detailed & so were the Star Wars ones. The reason would be the sculptors are making it out of clay, while toys are plastic. It’s probably much harder to get significant small details like this guy would be able too with plastic. You’re right though they could but but it’s not necessary to put too much extra work into a toy that’s going to possibly get smashed, thrown & broken
J P some companies do put in that much detail even the ones that mass produce but the ones he is talking about are the ones that make a toy for maybe 1.50 each and then sell them to you for 25 bucks
Toshinouu that’s what he meant by mass production lol
"you're a good boy" THIS IS ENOUGH TO MAKE A GROWN MAN CRY
прогтфн _ “Thank you”
And that’s ok
I'm glad I'm not the only one
(sniff) I'm not crying (sniff) you're crying............(sniff)
Wow the level of detail is incredible. Thank you, it’s an amazing sculpture.
This is anatomically beautiful in a way words can’t describe. I’m literally speechless 🫡 well done
The horse alone is a masterpiece but you've created a true work of art with a beautifully done recreation of Arthur too. Epic skill.
Nice but Lots of work for a decoration. I hope never falls or will crumble.

@BirdmanVeganFuture Everything falls and crumbles…eventually. 😅
This gave me a lot of respect not only to clay sculptors but marble/bronze.
How the hell are you getting respect? Bruh
@@danjan5506 I think they meant they have a feeling of respect towards people with this sort of skill.
@Dan Jan You know what he meant dickhead
@@loko6101 can't take a joke ass bitch snowflake bastard.
Skeet I think it was a joke
Absolutely incredible. Down to every single detail. Down to the bullets in his belt. Mind blown
I am speechless ! That was absolutely incredible. Your penchant for details is beyond words !
Watching you make Arthur's eyes was, honestly, horrifying. The thing that gets me the most is the level of detail you've put into parts that you then cover up! Like his frown lines under his hat, or the design on the saddle, which he did on top of, and many more. You've put so much more detail in than was necessary, but I really appreciate that level of commitment, because even if nobody else ever saw it, you'd still know it's there. That screams passion for your craft. Please commission this and share it with the world.
Ranald he already shared it lol
The shirt details that were covered by the jacket!
As is the way of the artist, it’s sometimes painful covering those things up, and it’s even harder to not do something, even when it will be covered up, might just be me though sorry for my English
This is just the equivalent of the work going into the actual game tbh

The amount of details is amazing. Brilliant work.
Arthur Morgan is a legend, it definitely can't find the value it deserves in the game world, best game script ever written.

Thank you from the heart. You have handled this remarkable subject with talent and genius.
Worth it!! I love these kinds of videos 😊
In a lot of Arthur's Stranger side missions, he's just helping out hobbyists, collectors, and artists, people that were just like Arthur. You'd fit right in as a mission-giver, and I'd be damned if I wouldn't tear up if you got this as John in the Epilogue, if you were helped by Arthur. That means that you have to make a Marston sculpture now!
Felt an odd amount of satisfaction when you finally put on his hat
"What's a cowboy without his hat?"
@@nox6948 nothing
Me too. Its probably bc it's such an iconic hat
Exactly. Thats how i felt
Yeah it brought a big smile to my face too
Incredible job! Love seeing the process from beginning to end. Look forward to seeing more of your work!

Did I just spent 21 minutes watching a man molding clay? Yes. Was it worth it? I don't regret a single second. Amazing work, you did justice to Arthur. Keep doing what you are best at.
I agree 100%
I actually didn’t realize how long it was until I saw this comment
@@zombie3beast822 me neither
Wow!!! Absolutely amazing, stunning and realistic!!! Much respect!!
I love this, it's absolutely stunning. I can't imagine all the work that went into this.
The level of "I can't even" I was while watching this video is astonishing. The way you crafted each individual part, from the skeleton up, shows a dedication that should earn you the equivalent of an Oscar for sculpting.
when you thought he couldnt possibly add more details, *he adds more details*
Holy cow! You posted this 3 years ago. I'd still be wrapping the horse in aluminum foil. Excellent job.
As a video game statue collector this makes me both happy and jealous that I dont have this or the skill to make this for my collection. Well done, very well done. Arthur went down in history as a memorable character, to this day i still havent replayed rdr2 because i know I'll cry.
I sent this to my son. Yes he cried at the end of the game.😢 I cried because I loved watching him play the game.
This guy is the definition of talent, like how is this even possible? I’m just blown away, well done :)
Its easy i did it in a minute
@@kenan5896 r/thathappened headass
Skill* although sculptors usually have a natural talent please dont take away from the thousands of hours of practice he most likely has in. I've been sculpting for 17 years and it is the reason I can make the things I make.
@@rhemedyextract7688 yeah ok buddy
How? By years and years of practice and experience. No one is born being good at anything.

Arthur is like, "Is turning me into a magnificent work of art part of your 'plan', Dutch?"
Honestly looks like a 3D rendering at the end and I’m spooked
Geez I didn’t expect the end result to look so clean. You’re a master
This is amazing art and you really spent your time on this, now I'm not much of an art person but this was a masterpiece.
The neigh and "you're a good boy" got me and then "outta my damn way".
@Lannie Hyunnie it was not to sink into sadness
"You're a good boah." "OUTTA THE DAMN WAY"
Coughs In Saint denis and almost dies Me- " nah fuck off is this the end of the game "😂
This is amazing you are a true artist this isn't just art its a true master piece
This is so pure ❤ When I say that someone goes the extra mile, for sure you did it. Bone and muscle structure of horse and human are incredible and all clothing and detailing is defined and perfected. ❤

That work is so fantastic, good job, Rockstar will be proud.
Beautiful craftsmanship especially the detailed horse!!
He actually adds the skeletal structure and muscles like he's trying to build an actual functioning human
Literally how sculpting works
@@lancekings3206 i know how to sculpt But he added like the actual shape of the pelvis, not just a basic shape to hold the hips And he added the individual large muscles not the general shape of the leg
@@hosseinhj9056 a good amount of sculptors work like that, myself included. It is better for larger projects where detail and proportions are paramount.
Perfectly dimensional and balanced omg
@@Phoenix-369 you are honestly so gorgeous
Hey! I am a horse rider myself and I just wanna say that the detail on the horse is insane! You captured everything perfectly, I reall enjoyed watching this video
I just finished anatomy, and I can say the same for the human model. He specifically put in certain muscles and bones so that it would all come together just like the real thing.
King of Worms yeah! He/she really did their homework with the all the details
No words to express, fabulous work bro keep going on... 😊👍
I can't describe..it's just wow
“You’re a good boy “ I cried I remembered the part “Thank you”
Me first half of Arthur’s face “ew gross man” after his face is complete “sexy man that FUNKS”
i thought it looked like hosea at first
@@maddiemoroni5668 Same! It looked more Hosea
I thought he looked like Sadie.
@@SilverGeFer I thought he looked like more me on a saturday morning.
Absolutely amazing - what creativity and talent you have !
This Is Amazing!!! Btw i really love how you put ALL of the songs of Rdr2
This sculpture looks like Arthur Morgan more than Arthur Morgan himself
True 😂
Tbh you're 100% right
Lol I never played the game ever, however the my reason I WANT to play this game is because of the horses. xD
@@bigpig1547 yeah
Maggie’s World without any shadow of doubt . U should play any game that Rockstar games creates 😂

Last time I sculpted something out of clay I didn't know what scoring was, needless to say it was hard as hell to keep together 😂 Incredible work!
Thank you from a different kind of craftsman. I now have an appreciation of what it takes to make such a detailed and beautiful ring!
To the sculptor who made this, "You've done good girl!" Or if you are a male, "Yeah, THAT'S mah boah, heh heh heh." This makes me want to playthrough RDR2 for the 4th time.
boah
Makes me wanna play through it for the 11th time
Thats precisely what i began doing
With those hands I hope its a man...
I cringed reading the male part
What I find mind-blowing, is that he goes to all the trouble of making the shirt detailed and accurate, then covers it with an equally detailed and accurate coat. As if you were even able to take the coat off thinking it would just be one lump of clay underneath, it is still a visually accurate character. Unbelievable
The attention to detail. Wow
I don’t even know if my computer can handle this detail
fricking frick

Rip artherthat bi#ch micha deserved what he got but arther didnt he was just trying to fo right
@@finleyhoaken1607 As much as I hate Micha, I definitely hate Dutch even more, he angers me to the core for turning his back on Arthur after giving him everything he had. I think that's the saddest part in the end, after everything he's just abandoned.
I think dutch got braib damage after the trolley heist and whithout hosea dutch was vonrable and at theend of the game dutch realisedwhat he done but couldnt bring himself to help arther
Some people come yo life and they have some kind of perfection to make their arts. Thats amazing.
Высочайшее мастерство, низкий поклон мастеру!!!!
It’s nice how it’s not just a blob of clay molded into Arthur and his horse, but how it’s actually built up. From the skeleton to the muscle to the skin to the clothes.
That's what I was impressed about.👏
Agreed! On the contrary, I think it would be more impressive if it were built without the skeleton. If that were the case, the artist would've had no frame of 3d reference so it would be amazing to see it turn out this way without that reference. This is not to say the sculpture is not impressive, of course. It's awesome and the sculptor is extremely talented.
QueenOlivia you’d still need some sort of skeleton to build up the sculpture on. Looks like they were just having fun with it and made it a literal skeleton
